Post gossip dowager Cindy Adams relates the following news concerning a recent game of chance: "HUNCH players in New York's daily lotto game won the other day when they boxed numbers 1880. That just so happens to be the year of N.Y.C.'s legendary snowstorm. And how's that for 100-degree August?"

Very nice for all involved, except the legendary snowstorm actually occurred in 1888. We're not sure what's sadder for Cindy: that the Post fact-checkers missed this, or that she's starting to get confused about events she personally experienced.
